I am looking for the parents of Andrew J. Donaldson/ Donelson/ Donalson. Andrew married Marinda Rains January 24, 1838 in Maury Co.,TN. They first show up on the 1850 census of Lewis Co.,TN. According to the 1850 census Andrew J. was born about 1815 in Tennessee. I have found them on the 1860 census in Maury Co., TN. I have not found them on the 1840 census.
